Peanut Butter Brings Such Happiness!

Each morning the girls eat 4 pieces of plain white bread and a cup of sweet, black tea. Unhappy with the quality of this breakfast, especially for growing athletes, I've started purchasing bananas or oranges to add to their breakfast. This morning I set a jar of peanut butter on the table as the girls sat down, and they went absolutely crazy! It's like it was Christmas morning. They devoured nearly the entire jar, spreading the thick gooey peanut butter thickly onto their bread. They giggled, laughed, and laughed even harder as their tongues got stuck to the roofs of their mouths. The scene would have made a perfect Got Milk? commercial. The happiness that it brought them filled me with sheer joy. It's amazing what a simple thing like peanut butter can do. Plus, seeing them eat a more complete, well-rounded breakfast satisfied the health nut in me!
